Most heat transfers into the home by way of conduction through the attic, that’s where insulation should be added.

Insulate the attic, basement and crawl spaces of your home. Around 20% of energy cost come from heat loss in those areas.

Indoor Temperature

Studies show that you can take 6% off your heating bill for every degree below 72 F you reduce a home's temperature during the cold season. For instance, setting your thermostat at 72 in the summer could increase energy use by up to 40%.

One of the best ways to save energy dollars is to use less air conditioning and heating.
